na chheD ai nikhat-e-baad-e-bahaari raah lag apni — Insha Allah Khan Insha

ajiib lutf kuchh aapas ki chheD-chhaaD mein hai
kahaan milaap mein vo baat jo bigaaD mein hai

kyaa hansi aati hai mujh ko hazrat-e-insaan par
fe'l-e-bad khud hi karein laa'nat karein shaitaan par

kamar baandhe hue chalne ko yaan sab yaar baiThe hain
bahut aage gae baaqi jo hain tayyaar baiThe hain

pahunchun main kis ki kohna haqiqat ko aaj tak
'inshaa' mujhe milaa nahin apnaa hi kuchh suraagh

main ne jo kachkachaa kar kal un ki raan kaaTi
to un ne kis maze se meri zabaan kaaTi

jazba-e-ishq salaamat hai to inshaa-allaah
kachche dhaage se chale aaeinge sarkaar bandhe

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

miri tamannaa hai ab ke tum phir milo to ji bhar ke muskuraaein
ki dekhnaa hai ye raushni kaa safar bahut der baa'd jaa kar

yaad aai hai to phir TuuT ke yaad aai hai
koi guzri hui manzil koi bhuli hui dost

kin manzilon luTe hain mohabbat ke qaafile
insaan zamin pe aaj gharib-ul-vatan saa hai

dimaagh un ke tajassus mein jism ghar mein rahaa
main apne ghar hi mein rahte hue safar mein rahaa

yuun to maujud apne ghar mein hai
aadmi mustaqil safar mein hai
